Meet Your Farmers:
Max, Elliot, and Madeline are passionate about growing fresh, local food for the community. They farm on organically managed land just under 40 miles from the UMN St. Paul campus. Together, they have 15 years of farming experience, and by day, Elliot and Madeline work at UMN training beginning farmers and food system professionals.
“We care deeply for the earth and our community. We are grateful for your support in helping us care for the land and feed the people of the Twin Cities fresh, local, and nutritious produce!”
What is a CSA Box?

A CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) box is a subscription service where you purchase a share of a local farm's harvest. It’s a way to eat seasonally and support local agriculture.
- Fresh from the farm: Produce comes directly from the grower to you.
- Seasonal variety: Each box reflects the peak harvest of the moment.
- Commitment: You pay for a "share" of the farm's harvest upfront, committing to receiving boxes for a set period (like a season).
- Support local farmers: Your upfront payment helps farmers plan their crops and sustain their operations.
Interested? Sign up today and enjoy the benefits of fresh, local, and organic produce this growing season!
